“Fine, I’ll be off then! If you have other jobs for me in the future, feel free to call me.”
After saying that, the man looked at Su Jiu and shook his head. Then, he took his backpack and quickly left with the other man.
After the two left, the woman closed the door to the courtyard and returned. She picked up the box on the ground and walked into the house.
Rong Si’s gaze followed her.
What’s she going to do to Little Jiu?
The woman coldly looked at him and warned him, “If you don’t want to die, you better behave yourself. Otherwise, I’ll kill this little girl first before killing you!”
Rong Si silently pursed his lips.
He knew that they were in the suburbs, and there were not many people around here. Even if he shouted, it would be useless. He might anger this woman instead. Thus, he could only remain calm and observe the situation.
***
After some time, Su Jiu woke up in a daze. She realized that she was tied to a stool and could not move. Immediately, she realized that she had been kidnapped.
She remembered that she had been waiting in the parking lot for her father to get his things when a person had suddenly appeared behind her. That man had covered her mouth and quickly turned her away. Another man had been waiting for him in the dark. This man had then covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief.
Su Jiu had immediately smelled something sharp, probably chloroform, and soon lost consciousness.
As she thought about it, Su Jiu could not stop the panic and fear that welled up inside her heart.
In the original novel, there had been no such plot. At this point in the original novel, the female protagonist’s parents had adopted her. Therefore, Su Jiu did not know what would happen next.
It was very possible that she might die.
She looked around with her big eyes and saw that she was in a dilapidated house. The house looked like it was more than ten years old. Many spider webs were on the roof, and it looked as if no one had lived in the house for a long time. The light was also dim, and it was a little scary.
If she were a normal child, Su Jiu would’ve definitely cried from fright.
Rong Si was also tied up to the chair a little distance away from Su Jiu. When he saw that she had woken up, he quickly said, “Little Jiu!”
Hearing his voice, Su Jiu froze.
No way! Why is the little villain here too?
Did he also get kidnapped?
She subconsciously asked, “Brother, w-why are you here?”
As she said that, the door opened and a woman walked inside the room.
The woman’s sight left Su Jiu shocked. The little girl thought that she had seen a ghost in broad daylight.
However, upon closer inspection, she realized that it was not a ghost but a very pale woman.
The woman came in with a glass of water and gave Su Jiu a smile. She gently looked at her, yet it made Su Jiu shudder.
The woman tenderly said, “Little Jiu, are you thirsty? Do you want some water?”
Su Jiu felt that this woman was definitely not a good person. She warily stared at her. “Who are you? Why did you kidnap me?”
She had never seen this woman before.
The woman was a little surprised by Su Jiu’s calmness. This is not a normal child’s reaction. Indeed, the little girl is not an innocent child, but rather a scheming one!
Just like her father!
Anger flashed across the woman’s eyes, and her smile turned cold. “You wouldn’t know who I am even if I told you. As for why I kidnapped you, it’s because you offended me, of course. No, more precisely, you and your father offended me.”
Su Jiu was speechless.
Daddy and I offended this woman? When did this happen?
